Col. Thomas L. Broun, Charleston, W. Va. : 

My Dear Sir : — Do not think that I have neglected your letter of the 1st, which was duly received. My delay 
has been in endeavoring to obtain information in regard to the daughters of Archibald Broun, of your inquire. 
I was in hopes of getting something more definite from Mr. Sinkler, one of your relatives here, but have not 
succeeded in doing so. It was Mrs. Nowell, and not Norvell, who was the daughter of Archibald Broun.. The 
Nowells were a well known and established family here, but I believe the name is now extinct. I went to 
school with Edward and Lionel C. Nowell. The former was my class-mate. Both of them are dead with- 
out issue. 

I enclose you a memorandum from the Huger family tree given me by my brother-in-law, Mr. Bacot, from 
which you will see he is himself a distant relative of yours, he coming from Daniel Huger’s first wife. Daniel 
Huger’s second wife being Ann Broun, widow of Cusack. 

With kindest regards to Mrs. Broun, I am, 

Yours very truly, 

EDWARD M’CRADY.

Charleston, S. C., June 10, 1866. 

“Major Thomas L. Broun, Richmond, Va. : 

“My Dear Sir : — I received your note and its enclosures, announcing to us, that after all the sufferings that 
a bitter war has inflicted, your victory was celebrated at St. James Church on Thursday last. 

“Accept our sympathy! as I trust God will accept our prayers for your happiness and welfare! 

“Say to my new cousin, with affectionate remembrance, that I congratulate her on the privilege of con- 
ferring the richest bounty on a faithful soldier ; and tell her, that if experience gives wisdom, I ought to be a! 
judge in these cases, for I have served under one commanding officer (my aged wife) for nearly fifty years 
without a murmur or a regret. 

“My family join me in all fervent wishes for you both. 

“Verv truly yours, 

“ALFRED HUGER.”
